iTunes App Store Volume Purchase

Apps
on each iPod Touch will need to be purchased. Recently, Apple began the
App Store Volume Purchase Program for education. With this program an
Authorized Purchaser for your school or district will purchase an App in
bulk. Apple will then send a series of codes that can be used to
download the app to your iPods. The codes are similar to redeeming an
iTunes gift card and work only for the specific App purchased. Many Apps
are available at a bulk discount via the Volume Purchase Page. To find
